big sander one ton truck?

would i be nuts if i put a 3.5 - 4 yard sander in a one ton dump, knowing that i will only put 2 yards of salt in at a time? found a deal on one and thought it'd be good to get it with the thoughts of exspansion next year.

just dont load it up. because with that huge sander and your plow on, youll be overweight. my girlfriends cousin got nabbed last year with a 9' fisher and 2yd sander on his f350 dump. he was about 1500 over weight.

I've ran a 4 yard directly on the frame of my 01 GMC 3500 Dually since 2001. It's only used as a salt truck and it has around 60, 000 miles on it and we've had very little problems. We regularly carry 4 ton in it but our jobs are all within 5 sq miles.
